Learning jQuery

Welcome to the new Learning jQuery — a multi-author weblog with the aim of sharing information about this most amazing of JavaScript libraries. As we post entries, you might begin to notice that the three authors — Karl, Dan, and JonBob — approach jQuery, JavaScript, and life in general from three different perspectives. Our programming experience ranges from beginner to advanced, so we hope to appeal to all levels of other programmers out there as well. We'll do our best to make each entry clear, concise, and understandable, and we'll also try to place them in categories according to level of difficulty. If you have questions or critiques or suggestions for improvement, well, that's what the comments are for. Enjoy!

p.s. This entry probably should have been the first one on the blog, but in the rush and excitement to get this thing rolling, we jumped right in with some code.
